73,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_100_281","A pleasure to meet you, Master Rammbroes. Pray call me “Prin,” if you prefer."
74,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_RAMMBROES_101_281","Thank you, Prin. And might I say what a privilege it is to meet such a rare and clever construct."
75,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_102_281","Clever? Well, yes, apparently Prin was written that way. In fact, we were just hoping to hear an opinion on a new snippet of information I've uncovered."
76,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_282","'Twas an order listed in a record of imperial military communications, commanding that “the fruits of the master summoner's research be seized.” It appears that the army had more than a passing interest in Sari's experiments."
77,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_RAMMBROES_000_283","Hmmm. And what exactly was the purpose of this research?"
78,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_000_284","Master Sari toiled to wed summoning magicks with aetherochemical technology. For example, he experimented with replacing grimoires with mechanical mediums, and sought to manifest egi of greater authenticity by utilizing high-speed computations."
79,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_RAMMBROES_000_285","...Simply put, he turned to machines to enhance traditional summoning methods. Is that the gist of it?"
80,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_000_286","Correct. But Master Sari was never one to abuse the success of his experiments, no matter how they magnified his power. He would not place his trust in machines─their inherently complex nature was too prone to error, he said."
81,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_287","The dates on these communications indicate a time in the latter half of Sari's life. Is it possible something could have occurred between crafting you and the execution of this order that may have greatly altered the summoner's outlook?"
82,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_000_288","There was, of course, the violent wave of anti-summoner sentiment that swept through Allag. It claimed the lives of many of Master Sari's disciples. Following their deaths, he began spending much of his time cloistered within his laboratory..."
83,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_RAMMBROES_000_289","Such an incident could certainly be responsible for changing a man. And Principia, you were unaware of subsequent events once you fell into slumber, yes?"
84,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_290","From what we've learned so far, 'tis safe to say that the foe we encountered is related to Sari's research in some way."
85,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_291","And there are likely more clues buried in these records. I shall speak with Captain Wolf, and ask to borrow the sharp minds of his summoner squad─'tis a rather intimidating pile to tackle on our own."
86,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_RAMMBROES_000_292","Well, seeing as you have the transcripts, there is no need to travel far. You are welcome to make use of my tent and the reference materials on Allag found therein."
87,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_293","That would be an enormous help, thank you! Let's haul these books to the dig site, shall we?"

90,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_DENISE_000_350","These Allagan records are like to make my skull burst! Opening portals to other worlds, forging new moons...and it's not even fiction!"
91,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_JAJASAMULALASAMU_000_360","I've been ignorin' aught that ain't to do with the military. 'Tis more efficient to have a narrow focus, I reckon."

96,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_JAJASAMULALASAMU_000_430","Ah, here's the bugger I was lookin' for! This's a record of when the military finally caught up with Sari. It says here the summoner was found dead─killed by someone else, it seems."
97,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_CRISPIN_000_431","Then we have proof of the original Sari's demise in the Third Astral Era. Now there remains the question of who─or what─attacked us in this age..."

99,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_JAJASAMULALASAMU_000_433","Aye, it goes on to describe how the imperial army took over Sari's research, laudin' his experiments as “exceptionally dangerous, but ripe with potential applications.”"
100,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_JAJASAMULALASAMU_000_434","They shifted operations to an artificial island soon after an' began practical testin'. ...One cataclysmic accident later, though, an' that was the end o' that."
101,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_YMHITRA_000_435","This artificial island must be a reference to Seal Rock─the very site of our encounter with the present-day Sari."
102,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_000_436","During the battle, my creator's simulacrum exhibited the ability to summon multiple egi simultaneously, as well as manifest highly authentic facsimiles of flesh-and-blood entities."
103,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_PRINCIPIA_000_437","The basis for every one of these unorthodox techniques can be traced back to Master Sari's research into machine-enhanced summoning."
104,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_CRISPIN_000_438","I'd say we have enough evidence to support a working theory, then. Namely that the Allagan military was using a clone of the deceased Sari to perform hazardous experiments─tests which explored the feasibility of aetherochemically bolstered summoning magicks."
105,"TEXT_JOBSMN680_02628_DENISE_000_439","And when we landed on Seal Rock, we must have somehow awoken the remnants of those experiments!"
